determining ethernet port speed in solaris
i purchased, what was labeled as a 4-port fast ethernet sbus card from ebay.
i installed it in my ultra1, and it seems to be working fine. how can i determine if the card is infact a fast ethernet card vs. the standard ethernet 4-port card?

I have a new Sun 440 and I am trying to configure it. Non of the Ethernet ports are enabled; when I issue "ifconfig -a" it returns nothing. Is there a way to know the available port name (e.g. ce, bge, etc.) by running a command or so ? (4 Replies)

Does anyone know how can I determine the maximum capable speed on a network interface card for different OS like HP, Sun, AIX and Linux.
I am aware of the tool "ethtool" which can be used for Linux. Are there any handly commands or /proc files where I can get this info depending on the OS.... (3 Replies)

axnet_cs
AXNET_CS(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual AXNET_CS(4)
NAME
axnet_cs - Asix AX88190 chipset PCMCIA Ethernet Driver
SYNOPSIS
insmod axnet_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [irq_list=i,j,...]
DESCRIPTION
Axnet_cs is a driver for PCMCIA ethernet cards based on the Asix AX88190 chipset. These cards are mostly NE2000 compatible but have sev-
eral bugs that are sufficiently tricky to work around that a separate driver was deemed necessary. When this driver is bound to a card, it
allocates the next available ethernet device (eth0..eth#). This device name will be reported in the kernel log file, and passed on to
cardmgr(8).
PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n
Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero
value enables debugging.
irq_list=i,j,...
Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver.
DIAGNOSTICS
axnet_cs: this is not an AX88190 card!
Indicates that this card is probably a normal NE2000 compatible card, which requires the pcnet_cs driver.
eth#: interrupt(s) dropped!
Indicates that the driver did not receive an interrupt notification for some reason. The driver will poll the card (with a signifi-
cant performance penalty) if the problem persists. The most likely cause is an interrupt conflict and/or host bridge configuration
problem.
